In a primitive movement
Of a flood to remember.

In a hazy septemeber
Channel Ares extends
A new Martian adventure.

A canvas of color
A system delight
A race to discover
The dimensions of light.

A race to understand
The prescience of sight
An energy that delivers
The correctness of right.

Watch the sky for pockets
Of ripping by rockets
Look with a grin
Keep up your chin
Because destiny’s coming to shock it.

A stars secret agony
Is part of my soul
Screaming in tandum
From within a black hole.

A stars desperate secret
In an old accustomed role
Screams a desparate silence
As exhaustion takes firm hold.

About solar trips
Stream misinformation
And missapropriation
Of an old philosophical split.

ancient tifs
About scientific rifs
Keeps information flowing
and imaginations going
A scars physically revealing rip.

Moons, hard at the helm
With destiny trying to overwhelm
Encouraging tradition
By avoiding perdition
Patiently defending their realm.

Field generations of light
Expand your creative delight
Ripe with conclusions
And delicious allusions
For the next generation of flight.

Field generations in night
Spy on the brightmess of right
Announced with a dare
With a vision for flare
A new breathtaking milestone in sight.

A steal your face
As a Jupiter crown
Is worn with distinction
In our localized town.

A prelude to ending
With a guitar licking sound
Is a Garcia remembrance
That’s now Gratefully found.

Stage lights shining
In my mind
Are messages from God
And temptation in kind.

Stage lights burning
In thoughts that remind
Of your emotional drift
And deep moral decline.

Stage lights focus
On your darker behind
With messeges from Him
Of a Secret to find.

Perfect Neptune
Powered by reason
Pulsing with gravity
And disco dream allegiance.

Silent Neptune
Empowered with reasons
Enraptured by hunger
For bold disco seasons.
